God, that’s precisely both funny and devastating, if Joyce goes “Hey, sorry, I don’t know you. I have to go find my brother.”

I don't think Joyce recognizes Jocelyne. Transition goals

You ever do a double take so hard only your head was in frame?

Now I wonder how much Joyce's fashion sense was shaped by Jocelyne helping her pick out clothes when she was younger, and going for the things she wished she could wear herself. At the very least, we know there was a rad Wonder Woman costume involved somewhere: https://www.dumbingofage.com/2019/comic/book-9-comic/03-sometimes-the-sky-was-so-far-away/cablenews/

I mean, given how awkwardly supportive she was the moment she found out about carla I imagine she will be, especially with her actively trying to learn more before this. Her being normal about it just isn't happening, she will say all the wrong things with the best intentions, Jocelyn will likely find her sister trying her best endearing given what she knows about her.

I think this is a good time to share how my sister came out to me:
While dropping me off in Florida for an internship at Disney World, she hugged me goodbye, whispered that she's trans in my ear, and booked it into the rental car immediately. However, I have issues with auditory processing, so I didn't catch what she said and wasn't able to ask her to repeat herself. After that I had to finish moving into my apartment and go to urgent care for reasons of my godawful immune system, so it was a good few hours until I remembered to text her something along the lines of "Hey, I didn't actually hear what you said earlier, so if it was some big secret then whoopsies".
I feel so bad about how stressful those hours must've been, especially considering she was spending a lot of that time in the Orlando airport. Feels like a topical story, though.

The moment you know your coming out is gonna go sideways, captured perfectly.

Well, called the stairs. Please, please be kind Joyce, I know this may not happen right away, but I have to have faith.

I'm predicting (and I'm not saying nobody else is predicting this, just that I am) that Joyce's first reaction will effectively be "Who are you? I'm looking for my brother."

This strip has featured people falling off of moving vehicles and I am not sure I have ever felt more tension in waiting between strips.
